This Dark Souls tweet perfectly sums up my feelings about Dark Souls III

‘What are your thoughts on the game, guys?’ I’d say I’m pretty much aDark Soulsfanboy at this point. I’ve played each game in the series long enough to earn all four platinum trophies, and then I kept on playing them for a long time afterwards. And yet, withDark Souls IIIon the horizon, all I can think about are the hardships I’ve faced in the previous entries, and I’m left wondering about the godawful beasts that are going to completely wreck my shit this time around....

UNIQLO goes retro with some classic gaming shirts

[As originally postedon Japanator] Oh, how I love UNIQLO. It was one of the few stores in Japan that had decently priced wardrobe options, and had sizes that would fit me, despite being a tall and gangly American. The timing on my return home was bad, so I missed out on the Metal Gear Solid 4 shirts that they had for sale. But, as luck has it, they’re doing yet another line of videogame-related clothing....

We actually have some amiibo news for once

Alert, alert For all five people (four if you don’t include myself) who still care about amiibo, there’s some actual news this week for the figures. The first bit comes curiously right before the Nintendo Switch presentation (tonight, which we will be covering!), and cites three mysterious new figures by way of CPSIA certifications.
